Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 362 - 184: Counting the Harvest, Burning the Camp!

After opening the storage box, a bunch of acquisition notifications appeared.

“So many new things!”

Cao Xing’s eyes lit up with excitement.

He couldn’t wait to start examining the attributes of these items.

The first was a book of orange quality.

Golden embossed letters on the cover read “Advanced Assassin Manual.”

But the author wasn’t Montela, rather another nameless assassin.

[Advanced Assassin Manual (Orange)]

[Quality: Epic]

[Item Effect: Contains the life story of a nameless assassin, including his various assassination techniques and insights. By practicing the skills in this book, one can master the various assassination skills of the nameless assassin.]

[Skills Available to Learn: Advanced Assassination Techniques, Shadow Swift Step, Assassination Rule, Shattering Shadow, Phantom Flash, Instant Prison Shadow Kill.]

[Reading Requirements: Assassins, thieves, stalkers, killers, and other assassination professions.]

[Reading Time Required: Unknown]

(Note: The time required to learn the skills depends on individual talent and effort. Only through diligent practice can one truly become a king of assassins!)

…

Seeing the description of the item, Cao Xing was instantly shocked.

“Huh? This is actually a manual that enables people to learn various advanced skills!”

The six skills listed in the book, among them, the first five had already been mastered by the white-robed priest, and the attributes were very formidable.

As for the last one, [Instant Prison Shadow Kill], it was likely a more advanced skill.

Even the white-robed priest hadn’t comprehended it.

Clearly, the value of this book was immeasurable.

No wonder its quality was marked as orange.

For any assassin or killer, it was a priceless treasure!

But unfortunately, it had a restriction that one had to be in the killer or assassin profession to learn.

Moreover, one needed to study the manual’s knowledge earnestly and practice them day in and day out to learn the skills within.

For survivors like them, it was quite convenient.

After acquiring these skill books, a mere clap of the hands and they could learn to use the skills.

However—

Regardless, the value of this book absolutely surpassed those several thousand kilograms of food.

And it was almost tailor-made for Sarah!

This powerful dark elf assassin could get a huge boost by learning any of the skills within.

“Truly deserving of its orange quality, this item is awesome!”

With excitement in his heart, Cao Xing began to look at the second item, which was a training camp blueprint.

[Shadow Assassin Training Camp Blueprint]

[Blueprint Effect: Allows the construction of a training camp in the territory. It can train ordinary non-profession subjects into shadow assassins who can learn basic assassination techniques, shadow stealth, and other skills.]

[Occupied Land Area: 124 square]

[Durability: 1800]

[Construction Material Required: Stone*300, Wood*150, Iron*100, Fine Iron*50, Mithril*20, Shadow Crystal*5]

[Construction Time: 17 hours 32 minutes]

…

“A camp that can train shadow assassins?”

Cao Xing’s mind once again became active.

“With this training camp, can I train a batch of shadow assassins and have them learn from that advanced assassination manual?”

“Although these skills in the manual have high requirements.”

“But as long as one person learns any one of the skills, it’ll be a gain.”

“At that time, I could even use this manual to train a powerful team of assassins!”

With this blueprint and manual combination,

Cao Xing seemed to see a different development path emerging.

However, this would require time to be put into practice.

Moreover, building this camp still required a material he had never seen before, [Shadow Crystal].

Thus, Cao Xing clapped his hands and clicked to learn this blueprint, then continued to check the next item.

[Lia Medina’s Transformation Potion: Special Item]

[Potion Effect: After use, it allows you to transform into a creature you have previously encountered, mimicking their strength, aura, etc. The transformation lasts for 60 minutes.]

(Note: The potion can only mimic the aura of creatures within the fifth rank and can be seen through by beings 20 levels higher than you.)

…

“Transformation Potion? This is really good stuff!”

Cao Xing mused: “But this transformation shouldn’t be a buff effect, right?”

“If it gets enhanced by Eternal Power and turns you permanently into another creature, that would be a big deal!”

Nonetheless, this potion had great utility and could be useful in certain situations.

He stowed it away in his backpack.

He continued to check the second potion.

[Lia Medina’s True Vision Potion: Special Item]

[Potion Effect: After consumption, it grants the effect of true vision for the next hour, allowing you to see through an enemy’s disguise, transformation, stealth, etc.]

(Note: This potion can only see through disguise effects of beings within the fifth rank.)

…

“Interesting, are these two potions paired?”

“Drink the transformation potion, and you can transform into the aura of another person.”

“Then drink the true vision potion, and you can see through some disguise and transformation effects.”

Cao Xing chuckled and then continued to check the next item.

[Levian Cherry Beer: Consuming it instantly restores 300 blood volume and increases agility by 15 for 300 seconds, with an 80% probability of entering a drunken state.]

(A beloved beer of lonely strong individuals, sold in the territory tavern, with a probability of attracting some stalkers or rangers to your territory.)
